World Book Day/Week/Month rolls on, spilling into more schools, making this a record-breaking month for me selling books in schools (or anywhere for that matter). As for the kids and the comic cover titles they come up with, there's no drop in quality, as you can see.
Underley Gardens in Carnforth was blissfully close the next day, and the drive home went smoothly. It's a special school, so you might think the kids would struggle with the class, but far from it. They handled me marvellously. Though I must remember, the selection process for the title, where they vote for their favourite in a knockout elimination process, is easier for some kids than others, and I may have to find another way of doing it for classes who, shall we say, may include pupils that don't feel at their cheeriest when their title's not chosen. Read the room, Kev. Read the room.
Ashton Keynes in Wiltshire was a return booking where I'd had to wait a couple of years for them to grow a new school-full before they could have me back. Two great titles from these groups, and the kids bought 19 copies of Richard The Third, for which many thanks.
The celebrities these six groups chose to appear in my demonstration strip were Mr Beast, Ice Spice (a rapper, I'm told), Dwayne The Rock Johnson, Ryan Reynolds, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Zendaya.
